hello, and welcome to our viewers joining us here in the united states and all around the world. i'm rosemary church. police and the fbi are trying to figure out why a man in his early 20s opened fire on a fourth of july parade in highland park, illinois. we have to warn you video of the scene is disturbing. [ gunshots ]

>> five people died at the scene, and a sixth person later in the hospital in this suburb north of chicago. more than two dozen others went to the hospital with gunshot wounds. most have since been released. police say they believe robert crimo iii opened fire from the roof of a building along the parade route. they say they recovered firearm evidence from the scene. crimo was arrested a few hours later not far away in lake forest, illinois. he led police on a brief car chase but eventually was taken into custody without incident. illinois governor j.b. pritzker says he's furious that more

innocent lives have been taken by gun violence. >> it is devastating that a celebration of america was ripped apart by our uniquely american plague. a day dedicated to freedom has put into stark relief the one freedom we as a nation refuse to uphold -- the freedom of our fellow citizens to live without the daily fear of gun violence. >> earlier a father who witnessed the attack described the initial panic and confusion after shots started ringing out. >> we heard -- it sounded like a string of firecrackers going off inside of a big metal trash bin. at first that's what i thought it was, 20, 30 maybe. then i looked to my right and saw the police starting to act, and i saw people falling.

and my wife and i took off. directly behind the store we were sitting in front of there's a parking lot. we started sort of, you know, going from car to car, running. we were at the parade because our 14-year-old twin boys were marching with the high school football team. and we knew they hadn't yet made their way up the parade route, and so we were going to try to get them. and after about ten minutes of the duck and hide, duck and hide, people were calmly walking away from the scene. we passed a man who was leaning against an apartment building who had an obvious fairly deep bullet graze wound along the right side of his head above the temple. and that -- that was the point when we knew it for sure wasn't firecrackers, it was a shooting,

which is just inconceivable in a community like highland park, illinois. >> more now from cnn. >> reporter: investigators say it was a north chicago police officer who found that 22-year-old investigators believe who was responsible for this crime scene behind me. that officer called for back up. there was a short vehicle pursuit. investigators say they took that 22-year-old into custody without incident. meanwhile, earlier in the day, we did hear from people who were attending the parade including one woman who sheltered behind a dumpster. listen in. >> i saw people shot and killed around me, and a lot of people hiding. a man actually went at one point to find his son, and he asked me to watch his kids. we were hiding behind a dumpster together. and the kids -- really little

kids, were like, what's going on? it's just fireworks, people get silly with fireworks. i stayed with them a half an hour. >> reporter: the father been looking for his other son put the children in a dumpster for fr protection. meanwhile, six were shot and killed, five died on scene here. a dodd of others injured. the motive -- still unclear. cnn, highland park, illinois. earlier highland park police identified the suspect as being 22 years old, but a later bulletin reported he was 21. cnn has reached out for more information. the. joining me, cnn law enforcement contributor and retired fbi supervisory special agent steve moore. steve, thank you very much for being with us. >> thank you. >> so the shooting suspect is

now thankfully in custody, and investigators are trying to figure out his motivation for carrying out this atrocious attack. one way is they're hooking at music videos that he apparently made and posted on line featuring ominous lyrics, animated scenes of gun violence, one showing a cartoon image resembling the suspect in tactical gear carrying out an attack with a rifle. another video shows that same cartoon image of him lying face down in a pool of blood surrounded by police with guns drawn. so how does material like this help investigators figure out a motive? >> well, it helps them a lot in that it shows where his mind was in the months and maybe even years leading up to this attack. the problem is not everybody who shows this kind of violent product on the internet is somebody who is going to be

violent. but in this case, it helps them piece it together in hindsight which is not a lot of value when people have been killed. so we as law enforcement have to learn how to take these indications and determine when the indications like this are the real thing. when this person is potentially violent. >> of course that's clearly problematic, isn't it, because the suspect posted these videos on several major streaming outlets and on a personal website. and yet no one appears to have flagged this young man as a threat. so what other information helps investigators find a motive and, of course, build a case against the suspect. >> well, it's -- you're going to have to get into psychological evaluations, but going back to all of his posts, emails back and forth, they're going to go into every single communication

he's had. and like we unfortunately found in -- afternoon uvalde's shooting, i suspect that we will find that this person had communicated with other people, had given much more overt indications of violence than we would find just on his general internet or social media feed. and we're going to have to start as a society and as a culture picking this up earlier. >> yeah. it is so -- such a problem, his own uncle described him as very much a loner, no friends. it's hard to imagine there would be a lot of back and forth if he didn't have appear to have a network of friends. i want to talk about the governor of illinois who says this is a uniquely american problem. he called it a plague. so what needs to be done right now to prevent this from happening again, particularly preventing these young, white

men, because it apparently appears to be them, getting access to these assault weapons and killing people en masse which is happening again and again it seems? >> well, first of all -- and i think we've taken baby steps in this direction, keeping assault rifles, things like that, from people 18, 19, and 20 years old. the complication in this event is that the person is 21. even with the laws that are being proposed, he would have been legally allowed to have this except in highland park or chicago, where he was. that gun that he used today is already illegal. so we get back to the point of if we can't enforce it, what good are the laws? >> this is the problem, isn't it? i mean, i was recently in germany, and the situation for anyone using a gun in germany --

and a lot of other european countries -- is they have to sit tests, they have to go through stringent tests to have access to a gun if they want use it for hunting purposes. why isn't there a system in place like that in this country? it seems so incredibly easy to get access to these guns and then, of course, when you're talking about an automatic weapon that has the capability of killing masses of people, it just seems an outrageous situation. for certainly those of us who don't come from america. >> i hope it's an outrageous situation for americans. i honestly, rosemary, i think what we've got to -- the problem we have is that neither side trusts the other. whether you're talking about the people who believe -- who strongly believe in the second amendment and their ability to legally own guns, and the people who believe that this kind of

thing is the result of guns being in society, neither side trusts each other. and that keeps either side from compromising. and what it's going to tyke -- and i can't write the roadmap out here, but there has to be compromise. we value to move to the middle because underneath side is going to have a really extreme victory in this one. we're not going to get guns just for sale in vending machines. and at the same time, you're not going to have guns removed from society, at least in -- in my lifetime. so we've got to move to the middle and get common sense -- common sense agreement on how we can stop things quickly. >> yeah. more than 300 mass shootings in this country this year, and we're only halfway through. just seems extraordinary, doesn't it? steve moore, thank you so much for joining us. appreciate it. >> thank you. well, more on the deadly

shooting in illinois just ahead including reaction from u.s. president joe biden who says more needs to be done to fight gun violence here in the united states. plus, the front lines are shifting in ukraine as russian forces win a critical victory and set their sights on a new target. we're back with that and more in a moment. up to 8 weeks of relief with cytopoint. that's a lot more fun time, right max? yup. it's lifehanging time. ♪ ♪ yup. cytopoint is a long-lasting treatment r allergic dermatitis. just one injection given by your veterinarian can control allergic itch for 4-8 weeks. it's life-changing itch relief that brings back the fun in life, day after day. now's the time to ask your

there are people around this country who are poised to do terrible things if we do not intervene and try to change their minds. some of them we know as children who need that kind of a helping hand. i don't know the circumstances with this gentleman, and i'm not going to say anything about him. but that is one of the things we just did with this gun bill. the gun bill that we passed in the senate, the bipartisan gun bill addresses many of the axpects of these mass -- aspects of these mass shooters, and some of that involves mental health coun counseling, trauma counseling we've got to reach out at early ages once we've seen the clear indicators. what will happen in this circumstance with this

particular individual i don't know. i don't know his story. but i will tell you that that part of the bill is important for the future. >> senator dick durbin of illinois speaking out after a mass shooting in his state during a fourth of july parade. at least six people were killed, and more than two dozen injured when shots rang out in the chicago suburb of highland park. police believe the gunfire came from a rooftop of a business as the parade was under way. the suspect identified as robert crimo iii was arrested after an intense manhunt. authorities say he was spotted by a north chicago officer, then taken into custody after a brief car chase. police say a high-powered rifle was used in the attack which they describe as random and intentional. u.s. president joe biden said he and the first lady were shocked by the senseless gun violence that has hit another american community. mr. biden responding to another

mass shooting in the u.s. ahead of events marking independence day. cnn's phil mattingly has more now from washington. president biden like every other american had what he expected to be a celebration of the nation, fourth of july celebration, shattered once again in his administration, an administration who has seen so many mass shootings, so many mass shootings that led to the most substantive gun reform law in more than 30 years. a bipartisan law the president signed into law just a couple of weeks ago, now experiencing another one. the president getting on the phone with the illinois governor, with the mayor of highland park, pledging federal resources and surging federal law enforcement for that manhunt. he acknowledged the shooting in his fourth of july remarks for a picnic of service members on the south lawn. take a listen. >> before i left for europe i signed a law, the first real gun safety law in 30 years.

[ applause ] and things will get better still, but not without more hard work together. you all heard what happened, all heard what happened today. but each day we're reminded there's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. nothing guaranteed about our way of life. we have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it by voting. >> reporter: the president held a moment of silence for those killed and injured during that shooting. later during the muskal performance, the picnic, the celebration, the fourth of july continuing at the white house. but so is the sorrow, the recognition that this just keeps happening. the president in his statement acknowledging that more needs to be done. certainly an accomplishment already on gun safety. when it comes to gun violence, it's such a pervasive problem in the country, the president making clear that what they've done so far isn't enough. phil mattingly, cnn, the white

house. and back in highland park, illinois, people attending the parade describe the horrifying moments and confusion that unfolded after shots rang out. >> we were at the beginning of the parade, heard what we thought was a sick joke of gunshots. people started running toward us. weren't sure what was going on because we thought it was just a prank until too many people started coming. ran out with everyone else. >> then we all heard like a pop, pop, pop, and i think everybody thought, oh, maybe there's something with the float, they're doing something on the float. then it just -- it just opened up, just a rain of gunshots. just so quickly for quite a while, at least it seemed. >> then we walked a little closer, and i saw someone like on the ground with his leg in the air and the girl like crying next to him. and then to my left my mom and i

saw like at least three more people on the ground like bloody. and then naturally like we just started running toward our car. >> and we're also following a developing story in philadelphia where two police officers were shot during fourth of july celebrations a few hours ago. authorities say both officers suffered graze wounds. one to the head and the other to the shoulder. they were taken to the hospital where they were treated and released. no one has been arrested, but social media videos show crowds of people running down the street where a concert and fireworks were taking place. police say they're following up on leads but asking for anyone with information to come forward. coming up next, aron, ohio, is on edge as officials brace for more protests over the fatal police shooting of an unarmed black man. we have following latest development.

police in highland park, illinois, say they have arrested the man believed to have opened fire on a fourth of july parade killing six people. more than two dozen others were wounded. the crowd went running for cover when gunshots rang out from the rooftop of a building along the parade route. police arrested robert crimo iii a few hours later after a chase. they recovered firearm evidence from the scene of the shooting. cnn spoke with a woman who says she was near the hear of the shooting area right across the street from where police believe the shooter was located. the woman says the gunshots

first sounded like fireworks, but a bad feeling prompted her to grab her father and take co cover. >> i saw wonderful -- a wonderful parade turn into a very scary moment. i saw people shot and killed around me, and a hot of people hiding. a man went to find his son and asked me to watch his kids. we were hiding behind a dumpster together. the kids -- really little kids, like, what's going on? i'm like, it's just fireworks, people get silly with fireworks. and i just stayed with them for about half an hour while the guy was looking for his other son. the dad ended up putting his children in the dumpster to hide and stay safe. it was probably 30 of us hiding in this little corner behind the dumpsters. my dad and i ended up going up on the roof to hide behind this large air continuing unit. and right across the street i guess is where they're saying

the shooter might have been. i told my dad like don't look out. don't look over that. it sounded -- it was the loudest thing i've heard. that's not like natural. it was a lot pow, pow, pow, pow, pow. it was endless. it was probably -- my dad thinks it was 100. i think it was 50 at least, but just an endless pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow, pow. just this loud bang. it sounded like if you're standing on top of a firework that's endlessly going. i just had a bad feeling. it just seemed uncanny. and i had wiatched fireworks th night before, and this was too fast. i ran and everyone was running behind us. people were just shot behind us. they let us go back to get our car keys and everything. and right where we were there was a girl just dead -- another man was shot in the ear, blood all over his face. it sounded like it was coming right next to us.

and apparently it -- on the roof or -- it was probably within 100 feet from us. but i can't tell if they're from above or on the ground. right where we were is where share showing on the news now, the exact spot where we were sitting. that's where people died -- someone less than four arm lengths from me just shot and fell. and it was -- it was so surreal. it's complete shock. >> and we will, of course, continue to bring you more updates on this story. russian forces appear to be setting their sights on a new target after a critical victory in eastern ukraine. on monday, russian president vladimir putin congratulated his troops for capturing the last ukrainian stronghold in the luhansk region. and ukraine says the battle is now shifting to the donetsk region as russia seeks to capture the entire donbas.

this as russian-backed separatists accuse ukraine of attacking the city of donetsk, part of the self-proclaimed donetsk people's republic. officials there say at least three people were killed and dozens more wounded in the attack. video posted to social media appears to show some of the aftermath, but cnn cannot independently verify its authenticity. as the fighting continues, ukraine is already looking toward its post-war future, unveiling a $750 billion reconstruction plan during a countries in switzerland. in an address, the president said rebuilding the country was the greatest contribution to maintaining global peace. >> translator: the reconstruction of ukraine is not a local project, it's not a project of one nation but a common task of the entire democratic world, all countries who can say that they are

civilized. to rebuild ukraine means to restore the principles of life, to restore the space for life, and to restore what makes people human of the of course it means large-scale construction, it means funding and colossal investment, of course it means a whole new level of security for our country which will continue to live alongside russia. and for more, let's bring in cnn's scott mcclain, live from kyiv. good to see you, scott. russian-backed separatists reporting new strikes on do donetsk. what else do we know on this? >> reporter: yeah, these strikes they say killed three people, injured dozens more. they included a strike that caught a rail yard on fire and caught several cars of a passenger train on fire though miraculously no one was killed. this is unverified row showing fires burning in -- video that is showsing fires burning in an

banded market in the area. it is difficult to verify anything out of the region but media says schools, apartment buildings, and houses were all damaged in this attack. now that the russians have taken the entire luhansk region, it doesn't seem like they're wasting time in moving on to the donetsk region also. the ukrainians have reported shelling, heavy shelling along the front line to the north in the direction of a city in the northern part of donetsk region. there's also heavy shelling reported in the southern region, as well. there were also missile strikes reported outside of that region altogether. in that case the local officials there say that there were seven missiles fired overnight, six shot down, though. one of them managed to start a fire inside of the city. >> all right. live from kyiv, many thanks for that. now i want to bring in uri

saak, advisetor the defense minister from the western part of the country. thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you for inviting me. >> so russia is celebrating victory over the luhansk rfk and is preparing to do -- region and is preparing to do the same in donetsk with the aim of capturing the entire donbas. how will korean respond to this -- will ukraine respond to this? >> first of all, i would like to emphasize that at the beginning of this aggressive war russia was saying that they will conquer the whole of ukraine in couple of days. and it took them seven weeks to basically fight for the cities in the region. and this battle for these two cities which are very close it each other, and if you look at the map, they literally constitute like districts of one city, right, so seven weeks of heavy fighting.

and the military objective of the ukrainian armed forces has been in this operation first of all to exhaust the enemy, to incur as much losses upon the enemy as possible, and to sustain as few losses as possible for ourselves. of course from the very beginning of the battle for the two cities, the ukrainian army knew that we were outgunned and outmanned. nevertheless, for seven hmong weeks weaver been -- long weeks we have been resisting in invasion, and now when the time came, our military command has made a decision, a tactical decision, to withdraw temporarily from the cities and to regroup and to fortify our defenses on other pre-prepared defense lines. and so from this perspective, russia has not achieved its military objective which from the beginning was to encircle and destroy ukrainian army in that region.

>> so do you feel that russia has restructured its goal here from the whole of ukraine to just the eastern part? is that your sense? >> i wouldn't go as far as to suggest that russia gave up theand go further west because we are hearing all the time the threats from the russian leadership with respect to other western countries, poland, the baltic states, moldova. this is why we continue to see that ukraine is here fighting for the european values of democracy and freedom, we are fighting to protect not just our land but as well european continent overall. it is difficult to believe that russia gave up that goal. at the same time, ukrainian army does not allow russia to realize their military objectives, so

they have to make due with what they can. and we believe that we have exhausted them so much that hopefully their defensive potential has decreased now. like you have been saying earlier, the attacks continue, and the next target of the russian aggressivor is likely to be the rest of the donetsk region, areas already suffering from heavy artillery shelling, from missile strikes, and ukrainian army is preparing to protect those cities now. >> so what does ukraine need to push russia back, or is there an inevitability here that russia will end up controlling the entire donbas region because in the end this is really -- it's taken all of this time for russia to experience some success, and it is in the east, isn't it? >> it's incremental success, yes. certain gains. we also have to say that the

ukrainian army at the same time has certain circumstance in other parts of the temporarily occupied territories of our country. in the south of ukraine, for example, in the kherson region, we've been able to liberate the snake island in the black sea region. we are also having certain success in areas around the second largest city, kharkiv. so from this perspective, in some places we are losings ground. in some cases we are cou counterattacking with the help of the military support we are gaining and we need more heavy weaponry and need to receive it faster. this is something -- we're afraid we sound repetitive because we repeat these claims every day, repeat these questions every day. this is something that everybody should understand. ukrainian army is highly motivated, highly professional, and capable of stopping this war

spreading further west in europe. but at the same time, we can only do that if we get the tools, the heavy weaponry that we request, the mlrs assistance, the banks, the air defense systems, and, of course, combat aircraft. the sooner we get them, the sooner this nightmare for the whole of europe will end and, you know, people will be able to live again in peace. >> and russian-backed separatists are accusing ukraine of attacking the city of donetsk. what's your response to that? >> everything to do with the tactics and strategy is purely decided by the general staff the armed forces of ukraine. of course, if that happened, military strikes conducted on certain warehouses where russians have been stockpiling the missiles which they're launching on ukraine incessantly only today in the morning there have been seven missiles that were fired at the city and, you

know, in the last couple of days we've counted, there have been over 160 missiles that were fired by russia at ukrainian cities, peaceful ukrainian cities and residential areas. so one thing i have to say for sure is that ukrainian army values human life very highly, and this is why we never, we never target civilian areas. so whenever russians claim that some civilian areas have been hit by the ukrainian armed forces, these are always fakes which are usually corroborated like bay the -- we can hear the russian army themselves admitting to carrying out these strikes. we target only manager targets unlike our enemy, unlike war criminals who from day one of this war have been destroying ukrainian residential areas, kindergartens, hospitals, and we are sure that one day they will stand trial for the war crimes.

akron, ohio, is under a curfew now after weekend protests over the fatal police shooting of jayland walker, an unarmed black man. police say the majority of

protesters were peaceful, but the mayor says there was significant property damage after nightfall. about 50 people were arrested for failing to comply with the curfew. all this comes just hours after officials released body cam footage showing the final moments of walker's life. cnn's paolo sandoval with more from akron. >> reporter: authorities in the city of akron leased about 18 minutes of body camera videos. each minute offering a different perspective showing eight responding officers before they opened fire, shooting and killing jayland walker. after the release of the footage, akron's police chief said the officers will have to be accountable for each of the shots they fired. >> they need to be able to articulate what specific threats they were facing, and that goes for every round that goes down the barrel of their gun. and they need to be held to account. >> reporter: investigators over the weekend shared more about

the possible perceived threat the officers faced during the pursuit including a single gunshot that allegedly came from inside walker's car while police were chasing his vehicle. they say this muzzle flash image captured by state traffic cameras is evidence, and investigators later recovered a shell casing at that scene. it was shortly after the car chase turned foot chase that you can see in this video those eight officers opened fire with a barrage of bullets. officers described walker reaching for his waistband right before they shot him, according to the police chief. walker was unarmed at the time of the shooting. the akron police department said the decision to deploy lethal force as well as the number of shots fired is consistent with use of force protocols and officers' training. the medical examiner's report showed walker's body had at least 60 wounds as a result of gunfire. walker's family attorney -- >> if you have a gun on you and you drop your weapon and leave and you see him running across the parking lot, you can't drop

him and seize his body with bullets. >> reporter: after the release of body cam footage nearly a week after the shooting, tensions flared, sparking a fourth day of protests. >> what i did say is him get out of the car and start running, and people firing on him. and does it take that much? >> reporter: walker's family says they want to get justice for jayland in a peaceful and dignified way. >> we don't want to rioting or anything like that. we want answers. we feel that the pain and, you know, personally i want to scream out and be mad, but what does that do? we want to take that anger. we want to use it for the benefit of systemic change. >> reporter: paolo sandoval, cnn, akron, ohio. gun violence has shaken people in denmark in the wake of a rare shooting in copenhagen. a danish man is being held in a

psychiatric facility for 24 days as police say he is suspected of killing three people and wounding several others at a shoch-- at a shopping mall. social media shows people fleeing and heavily armed law enforcement on the scene. one witness says it was chaos. >> i mean, people didn't really know where they were running. they just -- even when they were outside the mall they were running in different directions. and trying to find different routes and jumping over fences. it was quite chaotic. >> authorities say the suspect was known to people in the psychiatric field. they added there is no indication he was acting with others, nor was it an act of terror. but the investigation is ongoing. the u.s. says israeli military gunfire was likely responsible for the killing of an al jazeera journalist, but

the state department says a forensic examination of the fatal bullet could not reach a definitive conclusion, and that finding is not sitting well with the palestinian authority or the journalist's family. cnn has more now from jerusalem. >> reporter: the statement from the u.s. state department is important because it's the first time the americans are seeking out any sort of position on who they believe killed the journalist while she was covering an israeli military rank in the west bank in may. the state department said a ballistic examination of the bullet extracted from her body was inconclusive because the bullet was so badly damaged. they did determine, though, that gunfire from israeli military positions was, quote, likely responsible for her death, but that they have no reason to believe that she was intentionally targeted. they said it was rather likely the result of tragic circumstances during an idf-led military operation against factions of political/islamic jihad. the conclusion that it was

likely israeli fire that killed the well-known journalist is the same as that of multiple investigations including one by cnn. the american's conclusion is being met with anger by palestinian authorities and the family. the palestinian authority attorney general's office said it was surprised by the statement saying they believe the bullet was good enough to be matched to the one that was used. a spokesperson called on the u.s. administration to maintain its credibility and to hold israel responsible. the family said they are incredulous. >> we will continue to call for justice. will continue to call on the u.s. to carry out a transparent investigation by an independent body. in addition, we continue to call on the u.n. and the icc to carry out an investigation and hold israel accountable and put an end to the impunity that israel continues to endure. we call for justice for shareen. >> reporter: the israeli prime minister said that while the idf

has been unable to determine who was responsible for the death, the military has determined conclusivelily says that there was no intention to harm her. israeli defense minister pointed blame on palestinian >> unfortunately it is not possible to determine the source of the shooting. as such, then the investigation will continue. it is important to emphasize that during this operation event, like in many others, hundreds of bullets were fired at troops. which responded with fire power of their own. only in the direction of the sources of the shooting. the first to bear responsibility in such events are the terrorists who operate from within populations centers. >> israel military said any decision to launch a criminal
